Top failures

  1. CV joint boot split or insecure 4.38%

    A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.

  2. Horn not working 2.28%

    A non-working horn removes a key warning tool for other road users, so it must be repaired before driving.

  3. Dipped beam headlamp not working 2.28%

    A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.

  4. Stop lamp not working 1.94%

    A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.

  5. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.39%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  6. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.23%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.02%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (7.61%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.64%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.56%) · Indicator lens slightly discoloured (2.56%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.85%)
